Dammit. Was hoping you meant gridiron foozeball. I was so ready to plug how the Steelers will be back in the playoffs. Anyways, will someone explain the draw to soccer, I've never gotten into it, or really tried.

since coutinho and sturridge arrived and the cannibalism incident i'm starting to think if we can get 30 mil plus for him rodgers should go for it - if we can pick up another pure striker and a top centre back it'll be worth it - suarez scores a lot but also misses a lot

it makes me laugh whenever a liverpool fan claims they're a "big club", i honestly don't see them breaking top four even in the next 5 years, especially if Mourinho does go to Chelsea and Villas Boas splashes out in the transfer market. And if Arsenal don't fall off the track.

30m would be a fair price for Suarez, all things considered. Representative of his tech ability and also taking into account the controversy that comes along with him.

Honestly i cant stand spurs altho most of my friends are spurs fans (im canadian and live in london but most of my friends here are spurs fans ... rivalry is intense so thats why) ...altho i hate united more than them

Newcastle fans are abysmal. I probably go to about half our home games and this year particularly the ground has been packed with scum. It's got to the point where it's no longer the minority. Then of course there's the horse incident... The fact a large portion of our deluded airheads genuinely believe we're the best fans in the world is laughable.

Aside from playing, I hate pretty much about football. The fans, the culture, the authorities; everything. Sadly, it's addictive.

There's a lot I hate about football, such as the money and the egos, but some moments stay with you for the rest of your life. I'm always gonna remember when we beat Barca earlier this season. What an amazing feeling.

French Canadian here so MLS clubs are the only ones I can support. I support the Montreal Impacts...
If we are talking about international clubs, mine is Italia. If we talk about European soccer,
probably Man U

Materazzi was a d**k and still is. His twitter account is as hilarious as Joey Barton's.. We don't cheat.. Not all the times. Our 2006 campaign was terrific, one of the best national teams we've ever had. Juventus' play is far from being defensive/dull to watch.. They lost against Bayern Munich just because Bayern is obviously the best team at the moment.

Some Italian football can be great to watch, it's just a shame that so much cheating goes on. Too much diving and man-handling. Not to mention the corruption that had been going on in the league a few years ago.

When you have talent like Cassano, Di Natale and Pirlo it is a shame the way that they used to play tbf Their defence and midfield used to be pretty disgraceful. I remember that De Rossi on McBride elbow vividly

According to the press we're gonna buy Cavani/Suarez/Ibra/Higuain/Benzema.. We'll just sell one of our four attackers (probably Quagliarella) and replace him with Llorente (already bought). I don't have high hopes on the next season, we'll probably be challengers for the scudetto and will reach quarter finals again.

Surtur that happens. No need for bad blood though.. When Celtic fans came in Turin it was like a huge party inside the stadium and outside between the supporters. That is, unfortunately, not that common in Italy as we have huge fights between supporters happening nearly every month so..

I support Arsenal, they're my favourite british team.. Jovetic is a good player but really overhyped.. He's not worth 30.000.000.

We've already had Ibra. I think it would be the perfect piece for the game we have played the last few weeks (with 4 central midfielders continuously attacking) but he's a t**l and fans can't just forget he played 6 years with Inter.

Why? Bayern have had the most impressive seasons in recent memory. They've broken innumerable domestic records and dismantled a team termed the best club side in history 7-0 on aggregate, in addition to easing 4-0 past a team that went unbeaten in their domestic league (Juve) and has just secured a second consecutive title success.

Would wages be much of a problem for Juve? That may be a stumbling block with the amount he's currently getting paid.

Yes, we've paid a lot for the stadium. I just don't see Juve capable of spending a lot this summer. Also Serie A level is plunging deep. Hopefully next year we will bring three squads to the CL Groups. The difference, though, is that Europa League is considered a useless trophy.. Some players of various teams (Inter, for example) said this year that EL is a "burden" and they're happy they won't play it next year.

"Why? Bayern have had the most impressive seasons in recent memory.

@InfamousGrouse I'm not saying Bayern are a bad team. They're the best team in the world right now. I'm saying that as more of a Dortmund fan rather than Bayern. Plus Bayern will have Gotze next season and rule the Bundesliga and probably make it back to the UCL Final anyways.

I haven't followed them as much recently, but I remember when they were in the third division and got
to the bundesliga after a few years. Gussing that won't be happening again for a while then. Good
luck!

yeah I know it looks that way, but like I said, I'm not a bandwagon-er. Bayern's youth team used to train in Victoria every other summer and I would go watch them train as a 7-year old, I've liked them since then. And I fell in love with Ronaldinho during the 2002 World Cup, first one I cared about, and became an instant fan immediately. So, I started watching Barca games and I was hooked. they play such beautiful football, it's like a drug watching their matches. I mean, how could you not support them with how they play? (rhetorical question, please don't answer that).

I know it seems like I'm just supporting the two flashiest teams in Europe like some glory-obsessed bandwagonner, but I've liked them both for a long time.

i know, the problem for me this season is that almost all of the relegation threatened teams bar norwich are ones i'd like to stay up - sunderland have the always-entertaining di canio, aston villa have a great young team, newcastle are far too good to go down, and wigan are just all-round likeable.

Except Barcelona actually win trophies haha yeah I do like most of the relegation threatened teams, but I hate Pardew so Newcastle would be who I want to go down. Paul Lambert will improve with Villa, he has a very talented young team and he is a good, young manager.

yeah I know they have similar styles, it's just kind of a stretch to call them "the Barcelona of England" when they can't even win the league. and I never implied I only cared about victory. I support the Vancouver Whitecaps.

'Will you still root for benfica in Euroleague, they got an awesome squad'

i hate that team, they have their own TV channel in which some fanatic supporters insult Porto daily. they even celebrated the championship before actually winning it 2 weeks ago, Porto won the game with a goal in the last 2 minutes and now they're at second place, serves them right.. as for the euroleague, i hope Chelsea rapes them hard

hehe like that attitude, too many people forget about club team rivalries when teams from their country are playing, fuck that! i 'd never root for bayern or hamburger SV, Rostock, VfB Stuttgart or a bunch of other german temas. And for sure not for Liga or bSC in Ecuador...

Still I like how benifca plays and would like to see them win

btw. i'll be in Porto in two weeks for two days.. do you have any suggestions what to see? already checked, there is no match at dragao...
